Image: Bud Crawford lands in Australia, calls Tszyu fight a “W” and eyes Canelo clash as biggest PPV ever

Terenka Crawford did not waste time after landing in Australia. Within a few hours, he predicted how the fight with Tim Tku would end (“I feel that he defeated him”), he admitted that he did not know that Tsyzyu was the son of Kostya, and announced that his upcoming $ 200 million with Canelo Alvarez could beat any album in the book – including Maypac’s.

In the seat with Fox Sports AustraliaCrawford honestly talked about heritage, troops, piracy and the one who in his opinion is really the greatest of all time – and the spoiler: this is not him.

When asked, how would the fight with Tim go?

“I feel that I would beat him” Crawford said firmly. “It’s boxing, so you never know. But of course I will have confidence in my skills.”

“I didn’t know that Tim was his son.”

Crawford confirmed that Tim Tziu was on his radar before the end of 2023, when Tsyzu still had the title of WBO Super Welter weighing. But he also revealed that he did not establish a family only later.

“I didn’t know that Tim was his son,” Crawford admitted. “All this went through my head. I guess, because you never see Kostyi in the corner or anything like that.”

“But when Tim began to fight in the United States, then people began to say that he was his father …”

What about Kostya Tiszu himself?

“Kostya Tziu, was a great warrior. A great puncher. I remember how I watched his fight against Judah. ​​And he fights on his way to it … He is someone who was always very respected in boxing sport.”

Both even recently crossed paths:
“And Kostya and I recently met at a boxing party. I think it was in Dubai and we got a picture.”

“If it lights up … he can definitely surpass the Mayweather-Pacquiao.”

Looking to the future, Crawford confirmed that his fight with Canelo Alvarez was set up Las Vegas in SeptemberAnd he says that the rates cannot be higher – or more historical.

“It seems to me that if he lights up, he will receive support for fans, he can certainly make vast numbers required to elevate the great fight of Mayweather-Pacquiao.”
Then, with a smile, he added:
“It only depends on how many people want to steal him with piracy.”

If he won, Crawford would become the first male warrior in the era of four stripes unquestioned in three weight classes.

“Getting my contributions would be a handsome thing.”

The boxing legend Oscar de la Hoya suggested that the victory over Canelo would raise Crawford above Muhammad Ali and Sugar Ray Robinson. Crawford did not argue – but he remained grounded.

“It makes me feel good because I work challenging in this sport” He said. “So getting my contributions would be a handsome thing.”

He asked who He Is considering the greatest all time?

“Muhammad Ali” Crawford replied without a break.
“I know that many people have sugar Ray Robinson, but of course I didn’t see much, only because of how far it was fought. However, I know that those who saw how they fight, they say it is the greatest. But for me it’s Muhammad Ali.”

“Not only his successes in the ring, but also what he stood for. Only his position on human rights, in defense of his people … There are not many people who do it. He does all the things he did, goes to prison because he did not want to fight people who do not hurt him … Muhammad Ali was a guy.”

“I’m good … Ready for everything people throw in front of me.”

Crawford began his Australian concert tour in Queensland and will last through Melbourne and Sydney. He shrugged, shrugging in the suggestions of Jet Lag.

“I’m good … Ready for everything people throw in front of me.”

With Opetoa, Paro, Cambosos, Wilson and Tziu, who are fights from now to July to July, Crawford’s time fits – and his presence is a warning on every substantial name in the game.

Because asked for the size of his chances in any division, Crawford does not spin him.

“I feel that I would beat him.”

The Brit was dropped twice by massive underdog Prenga in the opening round of their clash in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia on Saturday, but ‘AJ’ managed to recover and record a big knockdown of his own in the second round that resulted in the stoppage victory.

Joshua and Usyk now train together, having famously had two battles for the unified world heavyweight title in 2021 and 2022, and the Ukrainian has had his say on his stablemate’s victory over Prenga.

Speaking to TalkSporttwo-time undisputed champion Usyk praised Joshua, insisting ‘AJ is back’ before predicting that Joshua will now claim a knockout win over long-term rival Tyson Fury in his next bout.

“Anthony Joshua is next undisputed champion. First round it’s a test but AJ is back.

It’s boxing, [the] big upper cut is good, it’s a knockdown. AJ [come] back and win.

“Greedy Belly [Fury] will speak now and say weak chin, Greedy Belly get out. AJ wins [against Fury], [he will] knock him out.”

Fury was victorious on Friday as he earned a seventh round retirement win against Mariusz Wach in Thailand, paving the way for the showdown against Joshua later this year.

Joshua was facing the Albanian in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia on Saturday, and it looked like a massive upset could be on the cards when he was dropped twice in the opening round.

‘AJ’ was able to recover and went on to secure a second round knockout victory to prevent the shock lossseemingly paving the way for the battle against Tyson Fury later this year.

One man who was ringside to witness the battle was former cruiserweight world champion Tony Bellewand he praised Joshua’s ability to turn things around in the fight after describing it as ‘chaos’.

“We predicted round two but I don’t think we foresaw that. That was chaos. He doesn’t see the uppercut coming and finds himself on the floor without knowing how he got there.

“The second one he did see it coming and he was able to clench down on the jaw. He got up and then the experience that he has he used tonight because he tied him up. Against Andy Ruiz he didn’t know what he was doing and didn’t know how to do that, but tonight he did.

“He showed once again there is no quit. To be that hurt in the first round and get up, that’s the recoveries of power. People talk about your chin, but it’s not, it’s the level of fitness that gets you up from the floor.

“When Joshua gets a fighter hurt he’s the best finisher in the division. Whenever he hurts someone they’re gone. I haven’t seen him drop anybody and they survive, only Andy Ruiz. He’s a ruthless finisher.”

The clash between Joshua and Fury is now expected to be announced soon for later this year, after Fury won his own interim fight on Friday by defeating Mariusz Wach.
